Bradshaw's foot still isn't healed...

It may not be a huge deal, but with Jacobs almost 30 and on the last year of his contract. Bradshaw's foot issues and inability to stay healthy for an entire season. I see the Giants making an early move for an RB. Maybe not round 1, but round 2 or 3. Doug Martin in Round 2 sounds awfully nice.

Re: Bradshaw's foot still isn't healed...

I'd like to see the Giants either pick a guy up in FA or draft a RB who's got some nice hands. I can see why so many people around here like Doug Martin, he plays a lot like Tiki Barber IMO. I know comparisons have been made that he's similar to Ray Rice or MJD, but I think he's got a little bit of Tiki in him as well.

I hope the comparisons end at just football. Though there was an interview with his mom in Boise, he seems to be from good stock.

unquestionably Giants have to add the RB situation for next season.** Is there any hope that Da'rel Scott or DJ Ware?**

I think DJ Ware needs to find a new team... I like Scott as a versitile back/return man. His game reminds me of Kevin Faulk, but with more speed. I have a hunch that Ware will be the odd man out this season.

Possbily but under Reese we have never drafted a RB in the first three rounds.

I don't always root for the Cowboys but when I do I wear my pink Jessica Simpson edition Romo jersey. (yes I lost a bet)

Although, it was widely reported Reese was very high on Spiller.

I think this stat may be a little skewed anyways because we havent needed to draft a low round Rb either, we have always had good production at the position until this year.

But, I also doubt we go RB in the 1st 2 round,but for diferent reasons. TR is the only 1st round talent at RB, he will obviously be gone when we pick at 32. Then, in round 2, I see Wilson, Miller and Martin all being gone before we pick at 64.

Like I said before, I'd like to see them grab a RB who can catch the ball out the backfield whether it be through FA or the draft.
